you can't stop living your life, not even when your best friends can't dry your eyes...

About Me


Hi, my name's Jeffry Rock Daviero. Yes, my parents decided to give me the middle name "Rock" in 1988 for some odd reason. I didn't make it up like most people tend to think. I'm not that lame. Some people call me Jeffy Rock. Some people call me Jeffy. Some people just call me Jeff. I prefer El Jefe.
As of now, I'm a student at Valencia Community College. I'm a few months away from having an AA degree but it really doesn't matter because I have no idea what the hell to choose as a career. I was a vocal performance major but now I'm thinking about majoring in some sort of science. That's me singing down below. I play in that band and I sing opera in class and on my spare time. It's pretty wonderful. I sing in four languages. I wish I could atleast speak one of them fluently.
I work at a clubhouse in Fern Park right next to Maitland, my homeland. I've never left.
My best friends are Red Dave and Kerry Hayes. Every day I feel blessed to have them in my life. They are without a doubt the two most talented, entertaining, caring individuals I've ever met in my entire life. I love them with all of my heart. I have some pretty awesome friends, Whitney Barton including one of them. Actually, my top 8 is all I have... ha, so sad.
I want tattoos but I need to be certain on a career choice first. I hate the fact that my career choice depends on my looks and I hate that the majority of Society doesn't really except someone without a degree or someone with tattoos. It's a vicious cycle.
Allen Ginsberg was a saint and I love him. Bob Dylan is an angel sent down from God.
I love music, it engulfs my life. All of my blogs are old writings of mine. Just crap I tend to make up.
I have border-line personality disorder
The things he said I could be Were laid out right in front of me. Would I choose deep fried apathy, McNuggets where my balls should be, Or super sized conformity? I walked away and I'm still me, Free to go fucking crazy.

I'd like to meet:


The individuals that said: "I'm water, you're the dry wood equal parts misguided and misunderstood. but all the neighborhood watched a fire burn from where they stood, as the smoke said "we're not half as bad as G-d is good." still there's a whisper in my ear, the voice of loneliness and fear, so I say: "devil, disappear!......AND "I say nothing about the prisons nor the millions of underprivileged who live in my flowerpots under the light of 500 suns....AND "I keep looking for that blindfold faith, lighting candles to a cynical saint, Who wants the last laugh at the fly trapped in the windowsill tape. You can go right out of your mind trying to escape. From the panicked paradox of day to day. If you can't understand something then it's best to be afraid." AND..."There are beads that wrap Around your knees that crackle into the dark Like a walk in the park like a hole in your head Like the feeling you get when you realize you're dead This time we ride roller coasters into the ocean We feel no emotion as we spiral down to the world And I guess it's worth your time Because there's some lives you live And some you leave behind It gets hard to explain The gardenhead knows my name ." AND........"Had a dream as an army man with an order just to march in my place. while a dead enemy screams in my face. but i better be quiet now, i’m tired of wasting my breath. carrying on, not over it yet. wish i knew what you’re doing and why you want to do it this way, so i can’t go the distance. i got a long way to go, i’m getting further away"...AND "Skies are grey, I'm looking for anything that will bring a happy glow. Night or day, it doesn't matter where I go anymore; I just go. If I ever saw you coming I don't know what I would do. I'd like to think I could control myself, but it isn't true. That's how it is when things disintegrate. And I don't know how much longer I can wait"......(((((Arron Weiss, Allen Ginsberg, Conor Oberst, Jeff Mangum, Elliott Smith, Bob Dylan)))))
